Description

This is a classic hairstyle that our model is sharing with us. Sometimes simple is the way to go and this is a great style for those who want to show off their highlights through a simple hairstyle. Long straight hair styled with highlights offers a sleek, polished look with added depth and visual interest. Straight hair can sometimes appear flat or uniform, but highlights break up the solid color and add subtle dimension. This creates the illusion of movement, even without curls or layers. Long straight hair naturally reflects light well. Highlights amplify this effect by adding lighter ribbons that catch and reflect light differently, giving your hair a glossy, healthy-looking shine. Strategically placed highlights - especially around the face - can brighten your complexion, soften features, and add warmth or contrast depending on the tones chosen. Since straight hair is simple and classic, highlights provide just enough variation to make the look more dynamic while keeping the silhouette clean and low-maintenance. You will need to trim your hair every 4-6 weeks to keep your ends healthy and to help prevent the appearance of split ends. Your classic highlights will also need to be touched up to ensure that they stay vibrant.

Depending on the event you will be attending will depend on the type of makeup application you will apply. A smokey eye works perfectly for a formal event or you can do something more natural for a day event. Adding blush to your cheekbones will give your skin some added color and finish off with a nude or pastel lipstick color and you are ready to show off your easy-going, straight hairstyle with highlights!
